Agricultural workers have long worked under challenging conditions, including heat that can lead to dehydration and heat stroke. Climate change has exacerbated the dangers of heat for farm workers and one nurse has made this the focus of her research: Roxana Chicas, PhD, RN, an Assistant Professor of Nursing at the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing at Emory University. HealthCetera in the Catskills producer and host Diana Mason, PhD, RN, interviews Dr. Chicas about her work that includes promising interventions to protect the health of farm workers. This interview first aired on HealthCetera in the Catskills on WIOX Radio on November 22, 2023.
